HEATING SYSTEM.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented April 30, 1907.

Application filed July 26,1904. Serial No. 218,238.

To aZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JEFFERSON DAVIS JONES, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brownwoodgin the county of Brown and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful Heating System, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to means for heating a number of rooms from common source of heat, such as an ordinary stove or an open fire place.

The invention consists essentially in the novel construction and arrangement of the flues through which the air is conveyed to a stove and therefrom to the room or rooms to be heated.

The object of the invention is to distribute heat uniformly throughout a number of rooms, and to save the expense of maintaining separate fires therein.

The invention consists further in the novel features of construction and combination of parts hereinafter described particularly pointed out in the claims, and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which,

Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view showing a form of my heating system used with an ordinary stove. Fig. 2 is a section on the line 22 of Fig. 1.

In these drawings A represents a chimney or smoke flue carried upwardly through the wall A. A stove B, is provided and a stovepripe B, carries the products of combustion om the stove B, to the chimney A. Below the flooringA, I arrange an air passage O, having an inlet at O and leading from the gassage O, and upwardly through the stove and through the stove-pipe B, is a hot air flue B which at its upper end opens mto a casing or box D, arranged in the ceiling A and having a grating D forming a top or cover for the casing D. The air flue B is also provided with a short lateral branch B" which opens outwardly through the stovepipe B. Within the stove B, the flue B also carries curved branches B which are extended for some distance along the inner walls of the stove B, and then through the said walls, opening outwardly through the sides of the stove B. J

In operation cool, fresh outer air will be drawn through the inlet O, into the passage C, below the floor A, and this air will pass up within the flue B, through the stove B, and the flue or smoke-pipe B, and into the various branches of the flues B being heated in its passage through that portion of the flues B arranged within the stove and the smoke pipe B.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

A heating system comprising a stove, a smoke pipe leading upwardly therefrom, a hot air flue extending vertically through the stove and smoke-pipe, the lower end of the said flue opening below the stove and the upper end of the flue opening without the stove pipe, and curved branches carried by the said flue, said branches being arranged within the stove and extending outwardly through the side walls of the stove, as and for the purpose set forth.

JEFFERSON DAVIS JONES.
